TTC in January!

So my husband and I have finally decided to start trying this january! I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! What kinds of things do you guys do to keep yourselves from going crazy while waiting?! I feel like it's too early to be browsing at baby stores... Any ideas?

My husband and I have decided to start TTC in January. Last Saturday was my last active BCP. Yeah! I'm giving myself some time to adjust and get back on a normal schedule. BUT things that I have done to keep my mind from not going baby crazy. I have been reading a lot of books on how my body will change, whats "happening" inside me books. I feel the more I know the better. I have also been wanting to find a documentary about pregnancy and child birth but I haven't found a good one yet. Websites have also kept me busy, this one is fun and many others. I've also been looking at names too, thats been fun. My husband is also a bit "freaked out" by this step in our life, but he seems to be handling it well. I think it will truly set in once I tell him I'm Prego some day, but I think right now he's just a little scared. And I don't think anything I tell him will change that.

Hi Em62709,

My husband and I have decided to start TTC in January. Last Saturday was my last active BCP. Yeah! I'm giving myself some time to adjust and get back on a normal schedule. BUT things that I have done to keep my mind from not going baby crazy. I have been reading a lot of books on how my body will change, whats "happening" inside me books. I feel the more I know the better. I have also been wanting to find a documentary about pregnancy and child birth but I haven't found a good one yet. Websites have also kept me busy, this one is fun and many others. I've also been looking at names too, thats been fun. My husband is also a bit "freaked out" by this step in our life, but he seems to be handling it well. I think it will truly set in once I tell him I'm Prego some day, but I think right now he's just a little scared. And I don't think anything I tell him will change that.

We will be trying around January too! That would make our kids around 2 years apart. It took me 6 months to get pregnant the first time. So I hope I don't have to wait that long again! I can't get the idea of a new baby out of my mind!

This will be our first! I really hope I don't have to wait 6 months! How come it took you guys that long? We plan on having sex everyday until after I ovulate so I'm hoping it will work out!
And let me know if you find any interesting documentaries out there, I would love to see them!

Iv been going for 6months and it was driving me crazy (unroll I starting reading into things and being on this ap) I even took and trip to the doctor, normal trying time is 6-12months for couples. Ur lucking if u can find the stress free time to go everyday till after ovulation. I thought that to start but it ends up putting to much pressure on u both and becomes I enjoyable it took the passion out of ttc (every1 is dif so I hope it works for u) try not to force it to much and try to enjoy ur baby making times :-) good luck!
